🎙️ Getting The Gig welcomes Digital Black, Todd White & Alan Healy Some collaborations are more than just songs—they're full-circle moments. Today's conversation brings together three artists whose journeys helped shape different chapters of R&B history, each leaving a lasting imprint on the genre in their own way. Digital Black first earned his place in R&B history as a founding member of Playa, one of the standout groups to emerge from DeVante Swing's Da Bassment camp alongside future icons including Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Ginuwine, and Static Major. A respected singer, songwriter, producer, and now member of the multi-platinum group Dru Hill, his career continues to bridge generations of classic and contemporary R&B. Joining him are Todd White and Alan Healy, whose story has become one of the most fascinating "what ifs" in 1990s R&B. Originally signed to Capitol Records as Sudden Impact, they later joined Michael Bivins' Biv 10/Motown Records as Whytgize, before continuing as Outsiderz 4 Life through Blackground Records. Though label changes and industry circumstances kept them from reaching the heights many predicted, their story has since become part of R&B lore, introducing a new generation of fans to one of the era's most intriguing untold stories. Now, those worlds come together on "Momma Said," a heartfelt collaboration that reunites decades of experience, musicianship, and perseverance while proving that great music has no expiration date. Today, we're talking about Playa, Dru Hill, Da Bassment, Sudden Impact, Whytgize, songwriting, brotherhood, navigating the music business, surviving the industry's highs and lows, and why the best chapters are sometimes the ones still being written. 🎙️ Jon Leon Guerrero's Getting The Gig series presented by Pete A Turner's Break it Down Show proudly welcomes Digital Black, Todd White, and Alan Healy.
